    Bertrand Russel’s 1912 book The Problems of Philosophy was Rusell’s attempt to succinctly summarize problems in the subject of philosophy that prompt discussion among philosophers. In addition to espousing his own philosophies, Russel uses this book to introduce the philosophic principles from other famous philosophers: Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, Hume, John Locke, Kant, and others.The book focuses largely on the theory of knowledge and epistemology rather than matters of existence and reality. Russel sought to give light to philosophical problems that were not necessarily the most discussed, stating that he wanted to produce positive thoughts toward subjects that were garnering negative criticism rather than constructive criticism. This book was one of Russel’s foundational works and is an accessible guide to understanding philosophical topics.

    In the thirty years after the Civil War, the United States blew by Great Britain to become the greatest economic power in world history. That is a well-known period in history, when titans like Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, and J. P. Morgan walked the earth.But as Charles R. Morris shows us, the platform for that spectacular growth spurt was built in the first half of the century. By the 1820s, America was already the world's most productive manufacturer and the most intensely commercialized society in history. The War of 1812 jump-started the great New England cotton mills, the iron centers in Connecticut and Pennsylvania, and the forges around the Great Lakes. In the decade after the War, the Midwest was opened by entrepreneurs. In this book, Morris paints a vivid panorama of a new nation buzzing with the work of creation. He also points out the parallels and differences in the nineteenth century American/British standoff and that between China and America today.

    Many of our ideas about the world are based more on feelings than facts, sensibilities than science, and rage than reality. We gravitate toward ideas that make us feel comfortable in areas such as religion, politics, philosophy, social justice, love and sex, humanity, and morality. We avoid ideas that make us feel uncomfortable. This avoidance is a largely unconscious process that affects our judgment and gets in the way of our ability to reach rational and reasonable conclusions. By understanding how our mind works in this area, we can start embracing uncomfortable ideas and be better informed, be more understanding of others, and make better decisions in all areas of life.Some uncomfortable ideas entertained in this book:- Political correctness can be harmful- Identity politics is a dangerous game- Morality is functionally democratic- Victims often do share some of the responsibility- God is a far more horrifying character than Satan- There is no such thing as freewill- Americans are manipulated into being pro-war- Non-whites can be racist, and women can be sexist- Some people do "choose to be gay"- Sometimes the bad guys win- Obese people are not perfect the way they are- It's okay to find inappropriate jokes funnyFacts don't care about feelings. Science isn't concerned about sensibilities. And reality couldn't care less about rage. Uncomfortable ideas. Prepare for a bumpy ride.
